Using Outdoor RinksA good way to find out how to use the city's outdoor rinks is to go to cityrinks.ca which is dedicated to these rinks, and is also operated by CELOS (the operator of this website). But there's quite a bit of information in the Topic here as well (see Topic details). We have maps (for artificial ice rinks, and natural ice rinks), a picture album, and a user guide.
